Program Curriculum

Education Specialist in Career and Technical Education

The Education Specialist in Career and Technical Education (EDSCTE) program is designed for teachers and administrators in secondary and postsecondary technical or community colleges, and instructors in business and industry. Theory and application are emphasized through learning by involvement with real life problems of education, business and industry. Program flexibility permits each student to pursue an individual career emphasis.

Skills, knowledge and aptitudes required to achieve students' goals are matched with graduate level learning experiences including coursework and seminars that utilize UW-Stout's state-of-the-art facilities. Off-campus learning may be facilitated through internships, outreach courses, independent study, distance education and a field study.

The Ed.S. degree requires 36 graduate credits beyond a Master’s Degree. Program coursework is delivered online, face-to-face, and via ITV on weekends and during summer sessions. Up to 12 graduate credits may be transferred into the Ed.S. program under the advisement and approval of the program director.
